There will be a trip to Mount Penn that afternoon, and in the evening ther< will he a grand parade of local and visiting Republicans prior to the meet ing which will be held in the evening. The convention will hold two sessions the following day. Pennsylvania, it Is seen, wields a power In Republican national conven tions, and she Is second to no other state in the strength of her Republican delegation on the floor of congress In Republican congressional cam-uses she has more votes than has any other state. Her Influence in shaping the action of the Republican members of congress can thus be appreciated. It Is a fitting compliment to the Re publican congressional delegation from the Keystone state that the veteran speaker of the house of representa tives, "Uncle Joe" Cannon, should ten der his services to help maintain the prestige of the Republican delegation from Pennsylvania in congress. Speak er Cannon has accepted an invitation i to speak In York In support 01 tnr candidacy of Congressman Lefean for re-election in the York-Adams district. This is normally a Democratic district, but Congressman Lefean has carried it at the last two elections. Speaker Cannon, in accepting the invitation to address a meeting in the district of Mr McLean, wrote: "Next my neigh bors in Illinois, my home state, I feel more at home among Pennsylvania Republicans than among any others. They are of tho sturdy, true blue, ever loyal and aggressive school of Repub licanism that appeals to me. We want Pennsylvania to continue as the ban ner Republican state in the country, and I will do my best to help her keep her Republican strength in the house of representatives. Pennsylvania's in terests are so great; they are so much dependent upon Republican supremacy that every Republican candidate for congress in the old Keystone state should have the backing of the full strength of the Republican organiza tion. local, state and national, to In sure victory In November." HISH WARDENS ARE BUSY The war that is being waged against the small army of illegal fishers along the course of the Susquehanna, by the State authorities, was continued at Sunbury, Tuesday, by Fish Warden O. O. Harmon, who swore out warrants for the arrest of several parties. Warden Harmon, it seems, has been quietly at work in Sunbury for several days, but his presence was not known until Tuesday. Tho one defendant is charged with using fish baskets with bottoms, between snurise and sunset, and this is a direct violation of the law; the other is charged with giggilig or spearing fish, which, also, is un lawful. The informations were made uerore Justice Carpeuter. The one party has already been arrested, but the other, thus far, has been success ful in evading tho officer with the warrant. A hearing will be held to day Both parties protest the accusa ion, olaimiug that they are innocent. The State fish authorities for sever al months past have been watching up illegal fishers all over the State, and hundreds of arrests have beeu made. Up in Centre couuty, last week a foreigner was arrested for catohiug two fish out of season and it cost him just SBB. It is understood that a number of other arrests are to bo made in this vicinity. Aroosod by reports of fish dying by thousands in the West Branch, Dr. Joseph Kalbfus. secretary of the State Fish and Game Commission, visited Lock Haven Tuesday, and gathered more than 9000 dead fish from the riv er banks iu and around that city. A net taken from the river contain ed half its capacity of dead fish, one of them being a five-pound salmon. The fines on the epocimens collected would be more than $9,000. The pollution of the Sinnemahoning creek, west of there, is said to be re sponsible for this condition of the riv er, and Dr. Kalbfus left Tuesday to seek the trouble. Hundreds of dead fish line both the banks of the river, and it is iapidly becoming destitute of animal life in that locality. UNITED STATES WILL KEEP PORTS OPEN NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-Rear Admi ral Walker,the head of Panama Canal Commission, declared today on his ar rival from Colon on tho Panama steamship Finance that the United States government intended to keep the two open ports iu tho canal zone in spite of any protests which might be made by tho Panama government. Ho added that he did not anticipate any trouble over the making of Ancon on the Panama side ot the Isthmus, aud Cristobol, near Colou, the free ports of entry. Rear Admiral Walker said that the work of the excavation was now pro ceeding twice as fast and with less men and at half the cost as tinder the French company. Health conditions, he declared, were excellent and the canal construction work was being rapidly systematized. He declared that statements which have found their way into the press relating to politic al excitement iu Panama were greatly exaggerated. Japs Renewed Attack. ST. PETERSBURG. Sept. 14.

IN CONVENTION NEW YORK,Sept. 14.—The conven tion of the American Bankers' As sociation opened in this city today with several hundred delegates being present from all parts of the country. President F. C. Bigelow delivered an address: He said iu part: Gentlemen of tho Convention: — However much prejudice there may appear to be at times against bankets, our business is of the utmost useful ness and importance, aud the right pursuit of it in its broader and better aspects requires all the courage and all the conservatism we can command. We meet in the thirtieth convention of the American Bankers' Association. This covers a period of grotesque aud whimsical financial legislation; some of our ablest men were infected with fragments of the silver bacillus and engaged for years in frantic attempts to restore the breaking fortunes of sil ver; some had too much seuse to es pouse free coinage; but they sought refuge in tho shifting sand of bimeta lism. This is all forgiven and forgot teu now. History, experience aud logic have killed lumetalism and it will never vex the world again. In 1875 we had 1000 members aud our dues amounted annually to $11,600. Iu 1885 wo had 1,395 members and our annual dues were $10,500. Iu 1895 we had 1,570 members and our dues were about #13,000. Early in this year we had about 7,000 members and our dues were $73,000. From this date looking forward to the coming year, we have now tin oiled 7,500 members and our increased dues will bring in an annual iuoomo of $122,000. This association was formed for mutual protection from enemies with out and within. An enlightened self interest is the best spring of all hu man action ; and the most manifestly valuable work of this association has beeu that of its protective commit tee, dealing with attacks from crimin als, forgeries aud the like. We have until now collected $5 a year dues from small banks, and we have spent at the rate of over $5 a year ior each bank in tIIM admirable work of the protective committee. This has grown with tho years, and the intelligence of it has appealed to us all. I would repeal the limitation ou re tirement of national bauk notes. If not all at once, I would certainly increase the limit to six millions aud after wards to twelve millions a month. I would allow the secretary of the treasury under warrant of law to de posit all internal revenue, and all customs receipts in national banks, on approved security. While I think the limitations of tho national bank act as to strictly com meroial banks, in the matter of real estate, are wise and prudent. I think, at the same time,small banks iu coun try districts can well he allowed to carry a certain percentage of paper on real estate security; and I think times of trial hate shown in this country, that such paper so secured, has been entirely safe, and as convertible as ordinary investment bonds. MINISTER SHOOTS HIS NEMNBOk MEMPHIS, Tenn , Sept 14 —A special to the Commercial Appeal from Columbus, Miss., says: In a duel with shot guns about eight miles from this city, Rev. E. M.

L. Reiohenbach, of Al leutown, the treasurer of tlie horly, and found a healthy state of affairs existing. The presence of more than SI,OO in the association's treasury speaks well tor those who have had charge of the finances during the past few years since when the collection of dues lias been handled in careful, methodical manner. By this means the treasury's reserve has been increased in five years from $541.1(5 to $1,31)4.1)3,5ure1y a large gain when it is remembered that the body was 20 years old when its trea sury contained the first amount nam ed.

Easy on T h?ae Children. Be a little lenient with the chil dren during tho first few weeks at school. They have troubles of their own It is pretty hard to give up the easy going days of vacation and change all at once to tho stern regime of the school room. Have you forgotten how a wrench of the heart camo to you years ago when the school bell rang and you must go away from the bine sky and the trees and glass to sit upright at a desk and compose your face into fixod- noss over a book ? Everything was now The school house walls had boeu cleaned and there was a new black board. But most of all—the now teacher! She might be one of tho-e rare maiden souls who could smile herself straight into your heart at the first meeting. But usually tho new teacher was an enigma. How you studied the face, noting every shade of expression from frown to smile. Authority sat on that face. Would the authority be tempered with justice and kinduess? You laugh at the mutuory now? It ' was a very real anxiety when your feet baroly touched the school room 1 floor. What a blank iu your mind about last year's lessons! How the sicken ing sense of failure tortured you when the boy or girl next you made a suc cessful recitation. Surely the new teacher would put you down il dunce.

The activity ot the State Pure Food Department has had the effect of stir ring the retail grocers and provision dealers to the point of formiug a de fensive association, the purpose of which is to protect its members when they get into trouble because State in spectors find impure food on their shelves. This new association was ex plained tally at a meeting of the Merchants' Association of York the other evening, and it must be said that if it keeps up to its promises and ideals it will be a material aid to the authorities instead of a hindrance as its name seems to imply at first read ing. Under the present plan, the merch ant who sell impure foods is prosecut ed, while the guilty manufacturer es capes. As one of the promoters of the movement says: "We are of ten impos ed upon by manufacturers who claim purity tor their goods when they are adulterated. The merchants Bhould not be made to suffer for the manu facturer's dishonesty." Therefore the association will pursuo the manufact urer or jobber who got the retailer in to trouble aud see that he is properly punished. The association also will keep the membership posted regarding tho tricks of adulterators as much as possible and thus guard agaiust trou ble. The plan on the whole seems to be a good one. Granted that the retailer does try to keep in stock none but pure articles it does seem rather hard that lie should be made to suffer when ex amination of his stock starts the mach inery of the law in operation. How ever, as the law now stands, the State authorities have no alternative. They must prosecute the man in whose hands the impure goods are found aud if the latter wants to reach the real culprit he must pass the suit aloug. And always to reach manufacturers aud wholesalers outside of the State it will be necessary for the Pennsylvania retailer to buy under a guarantee. This will make it possible to start civil suits where pure food laws do not reaoh. Charles Battaglia, tho well-known Italian padrone, is an important per eouuge in this locality just now where there is such a demand for hauds.
